Cana’s Feast Sangiovese Grosso Ciel du Cheval Vineyard 07

Review:

From the winery -

The 2007 Sangiovese Grosso is comprised entirely of the VCR6 clone (one of the Sangiovese Grosso clones known to produce Brunello)
sourced from Ciel du Cheval vineyard in the Red Mountain region of Washington. Less than four acres of this clone were planted exclusively
for us in 2002, and is the first certified planting of the VCR6 clone in the United States.

This much‐anticipated release reveals concentrated
aromas of black cherry and red fruits integrated with a subtle hint of sweet pipe tobacco and barrel spice. Aged for 16 months in French oak.

240 cases produced

“Flavors of red berry fruits highlight a refreshingly bright acidity that fills the mid‐palate before extending in to a lengthy finish. This wine will
certainly benefit from a few years of aging before revealing a glimpse of its true potential. Pair with grilled hanger steak or veal chop, Beef
Stroganoff, hearty stews, finely‐aged Cheddar or Roquefort.”
